Meet Christopher Hess. Christopher is a freshman in Electrical Engineering. He is from Springfield Missouri. Christopher decided to attend the University of Arkansas because of its great engineering program and the beautiful location. In his free time he enjoys riding the bike trails and playing disc golf.
The Razorback Regional Greenway is a shared use trail that stretches all across Northwest Arkansas. This trail can be used by both cyclists and pedestrians across its entire, thirty six mile, length. This paved trail connects the four major cities in this region and some of their best attractions. This is the nicest trail system that I personally have ever used: it is wide enough for faster traffic to comfortably pass, it is very well marked with mile markers and signs at every turn off and it even has a dashed and solid center line that lets users know when it is safe to pass. 
This trail has several benefits to your students at the University of Arkansas, including the ability to use it for exercise. This is a great place to walk, jog or cycle with a scenic view. If your student is like me and prefers not to use treadmills, this is a fantastic alternative. If your student is looking for more rugged trails or trails with more terrain, the Razorback Greenway also connects campus to several mountain bike trails at locations such as Lake Fayetteville. This trail provides a great place to exercise with extremely pleasant surroundings.
Another great characteristic of this trail is that it connects many of hotspots of Northwest Arkansas to the University. The trail website boasts that it connects six downtowns, many art and entertainment venues and countless parks. Although there are shorter routes to Dickson Street from campus, the trail crosses this thriving street at the near the center of all its activity. This greenway even connects students to the Wal-Mart Amp and Crystal Bridges American Art Museum. Wilson and Walker parks are also on the greenway and very close to campus
